Overlap dates
This directory holds one page per date on which an Egyptian-registered jet was at, or near, the same airport as Charlie Kirk, Erika Kirk, or a Turning Point event — on the same day, the day before, or the day after.
It is the intersection of the two halves of the case. The location pages hold the foreign side, airport by airport. The speaking-events catalog holds the Kirk and TPUSA side, appearance by appearance. This directory is what is left when you lay one on top of the other and keep only the dates that touch.
This directory holds two layers, and the difference between them is the whole story.
- All 78 claimed rows, reconstructed from the compilation that produced the "73 times" figure — one page each, indexed below. 60 of them rest on Erika Kirk alone. One claims both Kirks. Four claim a Turning Point event with neither Kirk present. Forty-four put the aircraft on the wrong continent.
- The six dates that survive a same-day-or-adjacent test at a shared field — listed first, because they are what is actually left.
Six qualify out of seventy-eight claimed. That gap is not a footnote. It is the most important thing on this page, and it runs in both directions: the published number is far too big, and six unexplained co-locations at fields this small is far from nothing.
The test each date had to pass
A date gets a page here only if both are true:
- A foreign-registered jet from the followed fleet — SU-BTT, SU-BND, SU-BTU, SU-BTV, SU-BGM — was on the ground at, or repositioning through, an airport at or near the event location.
- A documented Charlie Kirk, Erika Kirk, or TPUSA event happened there on the same day, the day before, or the day after.
Everything else is on the location pages, where it belongs. A three-day gap is not an overlap. A 15-month gap is not an overlap. Both appear in the published tallies.
The six dates
| Date | Where | Who | Foreign tails | Distance | Gap | What it actually shows |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 Apr 2023 | Jefferson City, MO | TPUSA Faith (Sean Feucht) | SU-BTT, SU-BND | ~130 mi | Day after SU-BTT's St. Louis arrival | Two Egyptian jets in one metro area across a TPUSA Faith tour launch — and the compiler footnoted the two-hour drive himself |
| 11 Feb 2024 | Lincoln, NE | TPUSA (chapter opening) | SU-BTT | 0 mi — same airport | Inside a 5-day stay | A genuine same-airport co-location at the field that has held the Egyptian Air Force maintenance account since 1999 |
| 3 Apr 2024 | Lawrence, KS | Charlie Kirk (University of Kansas) | SU-BTT | ~160 mi | Same day — but the aircraft departed at 8:43 am | The one day Kirk is documented in Kansas, the plane left the state |
| 23 Apr 2024 | Salt Lake City, UT | Charlie Kirk (Prove Me Wrong, U. of Utah) | SU-BTT, SU-BND | ~45 mi | Same day — SU-BTT lands Provo 12:13 pm | The tightest sourced pairing in the pre-2025 record, and the audit marks the flight accurate |
| 10 Sep 2025 | Orem, UT | Charlie Kirk (UVU — the assassination) | SU-BTT, SU-BND | ~7 mi | Same day, same field | The only same-day same-airport row that survives every version of the criteria. Both jets were already parked |
| 10 Sep 2025 | Wilmington, DE | Erika Kirk (claimed, disputed) | SU-BTT | Unknown | Same day | A spreadsheet cell reading "Nebraska/Delaware" against Erika Kirk's own account that she was home in Arizona |
Read chronologically
2023 — Missouri. SU-BND lands at St. Louis on 21 February 2023 and does not leave until May. SU-BTT arrives 25 February, leaves, and returns 1 April at 11:02 am. The next day, 2 April, TPUSA Faith launches its "Kingdom to the Capitol" tour with a Sean Feucht event in Jefferson City — 130 miles and two hours' drive away. Two foreign jets in one metro region across a week of Turning Point activity, and no Kirk placed in the state. Read the page →
2024 — Nebraska, then Utah. SU-BTT reaches Omaha on 9 February, hops fifteen minutes to Lincoln, and sits five days. TPUSA opens a Lincoln chapter on 11 February, inside that stay — same city, same airport, no Kirk present. Read the page → Seven weeks later SU-BTT is at Wichita, and on 3 April Charlie Kirk speaks at the University of Kansas — the morning the aircraft departs. Read the page → Three weeks after that, Utah appears in the record for the first time: SU-BND arrives at Provo 19 April via Salt Lake City, SU-BTT lands at Provo at 12:13 pm on 23 April via Williston, North Dakota, and Charlie Kirk is at the University of Utah that same day. Read the page →
2025 — the fleet converges on Provo, and then 10 September. SU-BND arrives at Provo on 23 May and stays 113 days. SU-BTT arrives 4 September via Minot. On 10 September SU-BTT departs that morning, SU-BND switches its transponder on and never moves, and Charlie Kirk is killed at Utah Valley University, seven miles away, at 12:23:30 PM MDT. Read the page → That evening SU-BTT lands at Wilmington, Delaware, where a compilation sheet claims Erika Kirk was — and leaves for Cairo the next morning. Read the page →
The counter-chronology, in the same breath. Charlie Kirk was in Seoul, South Korea on 5 and 6 September 2025. Erika Kirk has reportedly said she stayed home in Arizona on 10 September. Neither Kirk is documented at Provo at any point during the fleet's September presence.
Read geographically
| State | Dates here | Airport used | What is also at that airport |
|---|---|---|---|
| Utah | 23 Apr 2024 · 10 Sept 2025 | Provo (KPVU) | A Duncan Aviation facility — and the September window, which is the one thing that does not resolve cleanly |
| Nebraska | 11 Feb 2024 | Lincoln (KLNK) | Duncan Aviation's main plant — Egyptian Air Force account since 1999 |
| Kansas | 3 Apr 2024 | Wichita (KICT) | Yingling Aviation, an FAA Part 145 Dassault Falcon service centre |
| Missouri | 2 Apr 2023 | St. Louis (KSTL / KCPS / KSUS) | Three metro fields a tally cannot tell apart |
| Delaware | 10 Sept 2025 | Wilmington (KILG) | A customs and fuel field — used outbound only, twenty-one times, never inbound |
Four of the five states resolve to a maintenance or clearance function. Utah is the one that does not, and that is where the remaining work is.
Who the overlaps are actually with — the count broken open
The headline is "73 times those planes followed them." They are not 73 of the same thing, and most of them are not about Charlie Kirk at all. Every claimed row has now been reconstructed into overlaps.csv — 78 entries, each with its own page — and sorted by whose presence the compilation actually asserts. This is the sheet's own attribution, not a verdict by this site.
| Who the sheet claims was there | Rows | Share | What that means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Erika Kirk alone | 60 | 77% | The overwhelming majority. Charlie Kirk is not claimed present on any of these. |
| Charlie Kirk alone | 13 | 17% | Erika is not claimed present on these. |
| Both Kirks together | 1 | 1% | One row in seventy-eight claims the two of them in the same place at the same time — 10 September 2025. |
| A TPUSA event, neither Kirk present | 4 | 5% | Turning Point activity — a chapter opening, a Faith-tour stop — with no Kirk claimed at it. |
| Total claimed overlaps | 78 |
Read across that table before reading anything else about this claim. The number that travels — 73, or 77, or "more than 70" — is being heard by the public as seventy-three times foreign jets followed Charlie Kirk. On the compilation's own attribution it is nothing of the kind:
- Overlaps with Charlie Kirk: 14 of 78 — the 13 rows claiming him alone, plus the single row claiming both Kirks. That is 18% of the count. The Owens team's own companion figure is "about 23 with Charlie" — the reconstruction does not reach it, and nobody has published the list that would.
- Overlaps with Erika Kirk: 61 of 78 — the 60 claiming her alone, plus the shared row. 78% of the entire count rests on her.
- Overlaps without Erika Kirk: 17 of 78. Take her out and the pattern loses three-quarters of its mass.
- Overlaps at a Turning Point event where neither Kirk is claimed to have been present: 4. These are the rows where the jet is being matched to the organisation rather than to a person.
And that 78% is the part of the ledger nobody can check. Erika Kirk's flight logs are reported as erased. Of 139 sourced Turning Point and Kirk appearances catalogued in the speaking events index, exactly one places Erika Kirk at an event before 10 September 2025 with a firm date. So the largest component of the largest number in this investigation is measured against an itinerary that has never been published by anyone — its rows come from a spreadsheet column that often names a whole state, sometimes two states at once, and sometimes hedges with the word "potentially."
Then the audit cuts it again. An independent line-by-line check of the same sheet against paid flight-history archives found:
| Audit verdict on the aircraft's position | Rows |
|---|---|
| Accurate — the jet really was there that day | 18 |
| Inaccurate — the jet was somewhere else, usually another continent | 44 |
| Partially accurate — right aircraft and date, wrong route or duration | 5 |
| Not assessable — the flight archive does not reach back that far | 2 |
| Never published — a number with no date, city, airport or tail attached | 5 |
| Not reached by the audit | 4 |
Forty-four of seventy-eight claimed overlaps put the aircraft in the wrong place, including nine claimed Wichita visits on dates the plane was in Egypt, three 2022 rows invalidated because the aircraft was in France from 25 September to 10 November 2022, and duplicate rows counted twice — index 61 duplicates 31, index 63 duplicates 33, and index 56 is index 14 re-entered with the year advanced.
What survives is small, and it is worth more than what was lost. Of all 78 rows, only nine fall within three days of a Turning Point or Charlie Kirk appearance this site can independently source in the same state — and only six survive a same-day-or-adjacent test at a shared field. Two of those six are in Utah. One is 23 April 2024, when SU-BTT landed at Provo the same day Charlie Kirk spoke at the University of Utah. The other is 10 September 2025.
That is the honest shape of it: not seventy-three, and not zero. A six-date pattern concentrated on one state, standing inside a three-year record that otherwise resolves into maintenance rotations, is a narrower claim than the one being broadcast — and a much harder one to dismiss. The inflated version is what lets a hostile reader throw out the September window along with the spreadsheet.
Every claimed row, one page each
The six dates above are what survives. Below is everything that was claimed. All 78 rows of the reconstructed sheet — the accurate ones, the inaccurate ones, the duplicates, and the five that were never published at all — each with its own page stating who the sheet says was present, whether there was a Turning Point event and where it was, what the audit found, and the innocent explanation.
A directory that holds only the hits is a case. This is the log.
Every overlap page now carries the X posts a dedicated search returned for that row. The query for each date asked for posts about that pairing — Charlie Kirk, Erika Kirk, Egyptian-registered jets, SU-BTT, SU-BND, that city, that day — and quoted what came back, including unsubstantiated claims and conspiracy theories, with a link to the original post. Most 2022–2024 cells were never argued flight-by-flight on X; they exist as spreadsheet rows inside the 73-count. The posts that do name a specific date (the Giza cell, the California cell, July 20 Nebraska, September 4 and 10 at Provo, the Wilmington overnight, the Hebrew-from-the-jet amplifier claims) are on those pages. The count dispute as a whole remains on X discussions.

One page that is deliberately not one of the 78
- 29 April 2025 — Lincoln, Nebraska — an X claim that Tyler Robinson's apartment address was Google-searched in Hebrew from an Egyptian jet parked at Lincoln. It is not on the Owens sheet, it has no tail number, and it is not a 74th overlap. It has a page so that it is recorded where it can be checked, rather than being "discovered" later and added to the total by someone counting quickly. Tyler Robinson is charged, not convicted, and the claim is recorded as posted, not as proven.
The five UNPUB rows have no date, city, airport, or tail number. They are the extra overlaps described on air as taking the count from 68 to 73. They are carried here as pages because a number that cannot be examined is still part of the total being quoted, and dropping them silently would make the reconstruction look tidier than the source is.
Six against seventy-three
The published tallies are far larger than this list, they disagree with each other, and none of them has been reconciled:
- 73 / ~23 — the Owens-team headline: 73 overlaps with Erika, about 23 with Charlie.
- 72 — @JustTheTweets17, 18 November 2025.
- 70+ / "nearly 70" — Shadow of Ezra, David Nino Rodriguez, later restatements.
- 68 / 29 — Morgan Ariel, 17 November 2025: both jets, 2022 – September 2025, 29 also including Charlie.
- 65–75 — Liz Wheeler's paraphrase of the same spreadsheet.
- 77 — two late-2025 posts treating 77 overlaps over 44 months as settled.
- 1 — Wheeler's own strict reduction: same day, same airport. Utah, 10 September.
Do not average these. The disagreement is the finding. The X discussions page quotes the posts that produced each number. The reconstruction of the list those numbers were counted from — every city, date and tail the sheet, the broadcasts, or X actually named — is on The 73 overlaps.
Why six and not seventy-three. The larger counts are built by counting legs rather than visits, by matching on state rather than airport, by using a ±3-day window, and — per the independent audit — by including rows where the aircraft was on another continent. The audit found the plane in Egypt on nine claimed Wichita dates, found duplicate rows counted twice (index 61 duplicates 31; index 63 duplicates 33; index 56 is index 14 with the year advanced), and invalidated the three earliest 2022 entries outright because the aircraft was in France from 25 September to 10 November 2022. These six are what is left when those errors are removed.
And six is not a small number. It is six more than coincidence comfortably explains at fields this small — which is the argument, and it does not need inflating to seventy-three to be worth investigating.
Dates that were tested and did not qualify
Published as a list because a directory that only holds the hits is a case, not a log. Each of these has been claimed, or looks like a hit, and fails the test above.
| Date | Claimed pairing | Why it is not here |
|---|---|---|
| 25 Aug 2023 | Charlie Kirk speaks in Lincoln, NE — a real, named, in-person appearance | The audit places the aircraft in Egypt. The one time Kirk is documented in Lincoln, the plane was on another continent |
| 23 Apr 2023 | TPUSA Faith "Kingdom to the Capitol", Topeka, KS | SU-BTT departed Wichita on 20 April — three days earlier, 135 miles away. Outside the one-day rule |
| 9 Apr 2024 | Charlie Kirk speaks in Omaha, NE, Lord of Hosts Church | No aircraft in Nebraska. A clean non-overlap. (Some compilations date this appearance 11 April; neither date has an aircraft) |
| 5 Apr 2023 | TPUSA Faith event, Salt Lake City | No aircraft at Provo — the Utah record does not begin until April 2024 |
| 4 Sep 2025 | SU-BTT arrives Provo; UVU event 10 September | Six days. It is on the Orem page as context, not as its own overlap |
| 5–6 Sep 2025 | Kirk in Seoul, South Korea; SU-BND flies a 68-minute Provo round-robin on 5 Sept | Different continent |
| 13–15 Jun 2025 | The only well-dated joint Charlie-and-Erika appearance — Young Women's Leadership Summit, Grapevine, TX | No aircraft in Texas. SU-BND was parked at Provo; SU-BTV had left on 2 June |
| 21 Sep 2025 | Erika Kirk at the stadium memorial, Glendale, AZ | No aircraft in Arizona |
| 3 Feb & 30 Mar 2025 | SU-BTV enters the US at Detroit, twice | No Kirk or TPUSA pairing has ever been offered by anyone. Turning Point Action's Detroit convention was nine months earlier |
| 20 Jul & 17 Aug 2025 | SU-BTT's Nebraska rotations | No Kirk or TPUSA event in Nebraska on any of those days. Charlie Kirk's nearest Omaha appearance is 15 months earlier |
| 5–11 Oct 2025 | SU-BTV flies the identical Lincoln rotation | A month after Charlie Kirk's death. The rotation continued unchanged — which is itself evidence about what the rotation is |
That last row is the most important one in the table. If the flights were tasked to follow a man, they would have stopped when he died. They did not.
The counterargument, which every page here carries
Duncan Aviation has held the Egyptian Air Force's aircraft maintenance account since 1999, under a relationship documented in the company's own 2015 press release, and its main plant is at Lincoln, Nebraska — the most-visited field in this record. Wichita is a Falcon service hub. Wilmington is a customs stop used outbound only. Minot is where customs actually happened. The rotation never varies: Cairo → Paris-Le Bourget → a US field → sit five or six days → Wilmington → Cairo, flown identically by three aircraft over twenty months, with a dwell of five or six days every single time. A tasking that followed a person would vary with that person's schedule. A shop turnaround does not.
ADS-B has holes and they cut both ways. A track gap is not proof of a covert leg; a clean track is not proof of innocent intent.
Erika's side is the weak side. Her flight logs are reported erased, so nearly every "Erika overlap" is the foreign aircraft's track plus a claimed location for her. Of 139 catalogued Turning Point appearances, exactly one places Erika Kirk at a TPUSA event before 10 September 2025 with a firm date. The 73-overlap tally is measured against a set of locations nobody has published. See Erika flight logs erased.
What we do not know
- What time of day most of these events ran. Without event times, "same day" cannot be narrowed into a sequence on any date except 10 September 2025.
- Which aircraft the Kirk party used on any of these dates. The Kirk side of every pairing here is a location, not a tail number.
- Who was aboard any foreign aircraft, on any leg, on any date. No manifest, FBO log, badge record, or crew list has been obtained for a single flight in this record.
- Whether any of these aircraft entered a maintenance hangar. No work order or invoice has been obtained either — the maintenance explanation is as unevidenced by primary records as the shadowing one.
- Which version of the 10 September departure is correct. Three irreconcilable accounts, all from named sources, all settleable in minutes by anyone with raw archive access.
- How far back the window really goes. Trackers say 2022; the beat framing says 18 months; the earliest date this directory can source is April 2023, and the earliest Utah date is April 2024. A single unverified claim (@AuntLinda__, December 2025) would push SU-BTT's first Provo appearance back to April 2024 — month only, no day, no screenshot. The window follows the evidence, and the evidence currently starts in 2023.
